Like a solitary pensioner finally taking action over Robertsons jam changing its logo, Nigel Farage decided to march in person to the BBC’s New Broadcasting House to deliver a letter of complaint.
He (or some poor assistant behind him) took a ludicrous video of him walking there, then holding up a piece of blank-looking paper:

A moving and defiant act of protest, I’m sure you’ll agree.
Unfortunately for the former Ukip leader – but happily for the entire internet – this was extremely easy to Photoshop:

Your mole should inform you that Farage’s complaint is about a voxpop of a member of the public taken by a BBC journalist. When interviewed, the resident of Harlow, Essex, claimed the Brexiteer had “blood on his hands” for the death of a local Polish man last year.
Rather ironic for Nigel “voice of the people” Farage to be complaining about a voxpop by a member of the public – especially considering how often he pops up as a talking head on the BBC himself. Speaking of which, perhaps he can do some filming while he waits for a response to his complaint, as he’s in the area…
